Work to proceed as scheduled on Pogadl Park in Sylvan Lake
Work will proceed as planned this year on a new sports and recreation park in Sylvan Lake.
On Tuesday, council accepted for information status updates on several parks and protective services projects for 2020, including that of Pogadl Park along Highway 11.
Joanne Gaudet, communications coordinator with the Town of Sylvan Lake, says the Pogadl Park project is currently in phase 1 of a multi-phase development.
“Underground utilities, the pre-servicing, development of the park entry and roadway, of course the baseball diamonds are a big thing identified in phase 1,” she explains. “So phase 1 includes all of the planning, all of the approvals for the design and everything like that. Then we’ve got the baseball fields. Some of the work has been expedited because we do have the stadium going in for the Sylvan Lake Gulls (Western Canadian Baseball League team).”
